Why oscillation important for physics?
Oscillation is a common phenomenon in physics.Sound and electromagnetic radiation (radio, light, x-rays etc propagate as sinusoidal waves which are oscillations about a mean value. Springs, pendulums (penduli?) oscillate about their rest position in simple harmonic motion, which is oscillation about the mean.
If a pendulum takes 32 seconds to complete 20 oscillations. Calculate the time period?
Time period per oscillation=32/ 20=1.6 sec per oscillation.
What is time taken by an object to complete one oscillation called?
time period
A simple pendulum of length 20cm took 120 seconds to complete 40 oscillation find its time period?
The period of a simple pendulum of length 20cm took 120 seconds to complete 40 oscillation is 0.9.
What is the relationship between amplitude and period of oscillation in simple harmonic motion?
There is no relationship. They are independent. Either of those quantities can be changed without any effect on the other one. Except that when considering coupling, a greater amplitude or one component will have more effect in 'changing' the period of oscillation of the other to match the one with the high amplitude (via resonance).
